additional information generation of several ME3 knockdown cell lines, knockdown of inhibits insulin release. In the Me3 double-knockdown cells, the level of Me1 mRNA is not significantly decreased in the Me3-628(P)/Me2-725(H) and Me3-1672(P)/Me2-725(H) cell lines. However, a 32%, 49%, and 47% decrease in ME1 activity is observed in the cell lines Me3-628(P), Me3-628(P)/Me2-725(H), and Me3-628(P)/Me2-2124(H), respectively. Me3 mRNA is decreased in the Me3 single-knockdown cell line Me3-628(P), and it is lowered further in the Me3 and Me1 double-knockdown Me3–628(P)/Me1-753(H) but not Me3-1672(P)/Me1-753(H). The level of Me3 mRNA in Me3-628(P)/Me1-753(H) and Me3-1672(P)/Me1-753(H) is 10% and 59% of the CHS control, respectively Rattus norvegicus
